The Cursed Apple

First fragrance to make me cry. This smells like my mom in the late 2000s / early 2010s. She wore cheap perfumes, and this has that artificialness to it. The bright smile and hug she'd give me before leaving for a night out. It's so comforting to me, the femininity, the rosiness. I miss seeing her smile like that. I really wanna gift this to her, even if she doesn't wear it. It smells a bit outdated and her style has changed.

this house really excels at painting a picture with their perfumes. i can smell the red apple, shimmering with magic, and a hint of the poison within it. LOVEEE wearing this one to bed.

This one is not my taste, but I appreciate the creation for what it is. It smells like a ripe apple. Not sure where the bitter accord is, maybe in the violet?

absolutely gorgeous. do not get scared at first whiff, it's the poisoned apple >:~D but then, the other notes come into play in the most wonderful way.

So without reading notes, my 1st impression and thoughts that came to my mind were this "Pantene Shampoo, fresh apple, perfumey" and that's it. Then after 2 min, I got more of the apple, shampoo,violet, AND that bitter note slowly creeped in little by little. But it was never like OMG this is too much, too bitter. It added to the story and depth of the scent imo and it'd be boring had it not came in, but don't worry it slowly fades away while more rose creeps in, in place of that bitter note. So this really tells a story imo. This is a niche floral frag fs b/c I don't see this being a huge crowd pleaser or loved by many ...this is an acquired taste floral frag which is what niche is. I kinda like it for its oddness, and it's attempt of actually trying to tell the story. Def test 1st b/c as I said I can see many not liking the poison/bitter note. But also don't just spray & judge, to get the full effect of this frag you need to wear it all the way through, and don't spray too heavy. It's not needed, this is one of the stronger ones in this collection imo. I rate this one a 7.3/10. As it's not super unique or mind blowing and I'm not running online to grab a bottle, BUT it is decent, odd, intriguing, etc and who knows I may end up grabbing a bottle b/c I can already tell it's one of those perfumes that your not mind blown by but yet you keep thinking about it lol.
